- Association of Sepsis Diagnosis at Daytime and on Weekdays with Compliance with the 3-Hour Sepsis Treatment Bundles A Multicenter Cohort Study(2020) RANZANI, Otavio T.; MONTEIRO, Mariana Barbosa; BESEN, Bruno Adler Maccagnan Pinheiro; AZEVEDO, Luciano Cesar PontesRationale: Compliance with sepsis bundles is associated with better outcomes, but information to support structural actions that might improve compliance is scarce. Few studies have evaluated bundle compliance in different time periods, with conflicting results. Objectives: To evaluate the association of sepsis identification during the daytime versus during the nighttime and on weekdays versus weekends with 3-hour sepsis treatment bundle compliance. Methods: This was an observational, multicenter study including patients with sepsis admitted between 2010 and 2017 to 10 hospitals in Brazil. Our exposures of interest were daytime (7:00 A.M.-6:59 P.M.) versus nighttime (7:00 P.M.-6:59 A.M.) and weekdays (Monday 7:00 A.M.-Friday 6:59 P.M.) versus weekends (Friday 7:00 P.M.-Monday 659 A.M.). Our primary outcome was full compliance with the 3-hour sepsis treatment bundles. We adjusted by potential confounding factors with multivariable logistic regression models. Results: Of 11,737 patients (8,733 sepsis and 3,004 septic shock), 3-hour bundle compliance was 79.1% and hospital mortality was 24.7%. The adjusted odds ratio (adjOR) for 3-hour full bundle compliance for patients diagnosed during the daytime versus during the nighttime was 1.35 (95% confidence interval [CI), 1.23-1.49; P < 0.001) and was more pronounced in the emergency department (adjOR, 1.55; 95% CI, 1.35 1.77; P < 0.001) than in nonemergency areas (adjOR, 1.19; 95% CI, 1.04-1.37; P = 0.014). Overall, there was no association between diagnosis on the weekends versus on weekdays and 3-hour full bundle compliance (adjOR, 1.08; 95% CI, 0.98-1.19; P = 0.115), although there was an association among those diagnosed in nonemergency areas (adjOR, 1.15; 95% CI, 1.00-1.32; P = 0.047). The lower compliance observed for sepsis diagnosed during the nighttime was more evident 2 years after implementation of the quality improvement initiative. Conclusions: Compliance with sepsis bundles was associated with the moment of sepsis diagnosis. The place of diagnosis and the time from campaign implementation were factors modifying this association. Our results support areas for better design of quality improvement initiatives to mitigate the influence of the period of sepsis diagnosis on treatment compliance.

- Noninvasive ventilation in critically ill very old patients with pneumonia: A multicenter retrospective cohort study(2021) BESEN, Bruno A. M. P.; PARK, Marcelo; RANZANI, Otavio T.Background Very old patients (>= 80 years-old, VOP) are increasingly admitted to intensive care units (ICUs). Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is a common reason for admission and the best strategy of support for respiratory failure in this scenario is not fully known. We evaluated whether noninvasive ventilation (NIV) would be beneficial compared to invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) regarding hospital mortality. Methods Multicenter cohort study of VOPs admitted with CAP in need of IMV or NIV to 11 Brazilian ICUs from 2009 through 2012. We used logistic regression models to evaluate the association between the initial ventilatory strategy (NIV vs. IMV) and hospital mortality adjusting for confounding factors. We evaluated effect modification with interaction terms in pre-specified sub-groups. Results Of 369 VOPs admitted for CAP with respiratory failure, 232 (63%) received NIV and 137 (37%) received IMV as initial ventilatory strategy. IMV patients were sicker at baseline (median SOFA 8 vs. 4). Hospital mortality was 114/232 (49%) for NIV and 90/137 (66%) for IMV. For the comparison NIV vs. IMV (reference), the crude odds ratio (OR) was 0.50 (95% CI, 0.33-0.78, p = 0.002). This association was largely confounded by antecedent characteristics and non-respiratory SOFA (adjOR = 0.70, 95% CI, 0.41-1.20, p = 0.196). The fully adjusted model, additionally including P(a)o(2)/F(i)o(2) ratio, pH and P(a)co(2), yielded an adjOR of 0.81 (95% CI, 0.46-1.41, p = 0.452). There was no strong evidence of effect modification among relevant subgroups, such as P(a)o(2)/F(i)o(2) ratio <= 150 (p = 0.30), acute respiratory acidosis (p = 0.42) and non-respiratory SOFA >= 4 (p = 0.53). Conclusions NIV was not associated with lower hospital mortality when compared to IMV in critically ill VOP admitted with CAP, but there was no strong signal of harm from its use. The main confounders of this association were both the severity of respiratory dysfunction and of extrarespiratory organ failures.
- One-year survival and resource use after critical illness: impact of organ failure and residual organ dysfunction in a cohort study in Brazil(2015) RANZANI, Otavio T.; ZAMPIERI, Fernando G.; BESEN, Bruno A. M. P.; AZEVEDO, Luciano C. P.; PARK, MarceloIntroduction: In this study, we evaluated the impacts of organ failure and residual dysfunction on 1-year survival and health care resource use using Intensive Care Unit (ICU) discharge as the starting point. Methods: We conducted a historical cohort study, including all adult patients discharged alive after at least 72 h of ICU stay in a tertiary teaching hospital in Brazil. The starting point of follow-up was ICU discharge. Organ failure was defined as a value of 3 or 4 in its corresponding component of the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score, and residual organ dysfunction was defined as a score of 1 or 2. We fit a multivariate flexible Cox model to predict 1-year survival. Results: We analyzed 690 patients. Mortality at 1 year after discharge was 27 %. Using multivariate modeling, age, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, cancer, organ dysfunctions and albumin at ICU discharge were the main determinants of 1-year survival. Age and organ failure were non-linearly associated with survival, and the impact of organ failure diminished over time. We conducted a subset analysis with 561 patients (81 %) discharged without organ failure within the previous 24 h of discharge, and the number of residual organs in dysfunction remained strongly associated with reduced 1-year survival. The use of health care resources among hospital survivors was substantial within 1 year: 40 % of the patients were rehospitalized, 52 % visited the emergency department, 90 % were seen at the outpatient clinic, 14 % attended rehabilitation outpatient services, 11 % were followed by the psychological or psychiatric service and 7 % used the day hospital facility. Use of health care resources up to 30 days after hospital discharge was associated with the number of organs in dysfunction at ICU discharge. Conclusions: Organ failure was an important determinant of 1-year outcome of critically ill survivors. Nevertheless, the impact of organ failure tended to diminish over time. Resource use after critical illness was elevated among ICU survivors, and a targeted action is needed to deliver appropriate care and to reduce the late critical illness burden.
